How John Geiger Has Changed The Sneaker Game

“Influencer”.

It’s a word that’s thrown around a lot in the sneaker game nowadays. Anyone who “influences” almost any amount of people to buy a specific sneaker, rock with a certain brand, or move in a specific direction is considered an “influencer”.

Although some of these “influencers” might have a questionable reach, one who cannot be questioned is John Geiger, manager of All-Pro cornerback Darrelle Revis and sneakerhead extraordinaire. What sets Geiger aside, you might ask? Simple, his love for two things: Air Force I’s, and customizing his shoes. read more

We’ve addressed the worst, now it’s time for the best.

With that in mind, I present to you the five worst Air Jordans. If there’s a best, there’s got to be a worst as well, and these are the least desirable in my opinion. read more

What I’ve Been Doing Recently

It’s Easter Sunday, and as everyone’s at home relaxing (unless you’re in the service industry…sorry), I figured that now is as good of a time as any for a quick recap of what I’ve been up to recently.

In case you haven’t checked the site recently, or you don’t follow me on social media (which you should, I like to think I’m pretty funny), I’ve been writing for Karmaloop‘s blog KLX recently.

It’s been a lot of fun. It’s enjoyable to have to write from a significantly different point of view, and although it’s very difficult, I’d say that it’s made me a much better writer. Plus I get free gear. Can’t complain about that, right? read more
